Cost Containment Through Energy Efficiency in Texas State-Owned Buildings
Abstract
"The Energy Cost Containment Through Energy
Efficiency" in Texas State-owned buildings project
was begun in the spring of 1984 as a part of a multipronged
effort to reduce rising energy costs in
State operations. Energy audits of 21 million
square feet (22% of total conditioned space) were
conducted by three energy engineering firms and
Texas Engineering Extension Service personnel under
contract to the Public Utility Commission of Texas.
Retrofits totaling $15.6 million with annual savings
of $9.2 million were identified (59% ROI).
This paper will detail the objectives of the
project, summarize audit results, and outline
financing options for individual projects.
